12. I don't mind hearing another opinion, but she refuses to let anyone else speak

I heard her on the Ed show the other day...and although everyone let her make her point when it was her turn to talk uninterrupted, she did not extend the same courtesy. She would not let one other person make their point...she was loud and rude and frankly so so radically right-wing (not conservative, but Fox-news crazy).

I watched a portion of the Cycle show when one of the males mentioned that extensive investigative report debunking Issa's lies on Fast and Furious. She interrupted him and said, "That has been debunked," and moved on with no explanation, as they were going to break, someone said, "debunked?" Because they can only get in one word before she talks over them in her loud fingernailsonachalkboard voice, she said the name of a right wing rag that has likely done no investigation. The lack of discussion on the subject is scary, because that is likely the fox news way..."ignore the extensive investigative journalism...we deem it debunked...and therefore it is." And like zombies, they walk around mimicking, "debunked...debunked...debunked..."
